The Florists^ Review 



Afbil 23, 1914. 



QLEN COVE, N. Y. 



The monthly meeting of the Nassau 

 County Horticultural Society was held 

 April 8, at Pembroke hall, with Presi- 

 dent H. Gaut in the chair. A letter 

 was read from the National Association 

 of Gardeners, inviting all societies in- 

 terested in the cooperation movement 

 each to appoint a committee of three, 

 to be known as the cooperative com- 

 mittee, to work hand in hand with a 

 similar committee of the N. A. G. Ed- 

 ward Rorke, of Locust Valley, and 

 Leon Mamfroy, of Eoslyn, were elected 

 to membership. Mrs. W. A. Rossiter, of 

 Glen Cove, was elected to honorary 

 membership. 



Judges for the monthly exhibits were 

 S. J. Trepess, James Duthie and 

 George Ashworth. Awards were made 

 as follows: 



Twelve large trumpet Darclssl — J. W. Everltt, 

 first. 



Twelve early single tulips— H. Gaut. first. 



One pan hyacinths— F. Honeyman, first. 



Henry Gaut received a cultural cer- 

 tificate for a fine collection of twelve 

 greenhouse-grown vegetables and herbs; 

 F. Honeyman, a certificate for a fine 

 specimen schizanthus, and H. Gaut, a 

 certificate for two pans of the new 

 Holland iris, which ,were extremely 

 fine. Honorable mention was given to 

 James McCarthy for a vase of carna- 

 tions and to James MacDonald for a 

 vase of double tulips. 



Mr. Wilkinson, of the New York 

 state department of agriculture, gave 

 an interesting and instructive address 

 on "Home Gardens," which was short, 

 owing to the lecturer's having to catch 

 a train, but was enjoyed by all present. 

 F. E. Conine also addressed the meet- 

 ing. J. J. Levesson, of the Brooklyn 

 parks, will give an illustrated lecture 

 on "Long Island Trees," Thursday 

 afternoon. May 7, at the Glen theater, 

 Glen Cove. The secretary was in- 

 structed to write to Mr. Wilkinson re- 

 garding the vegetables shown at some 

 of the New York state fairs, which are 

 usually tables with collections of mon- 

 strosities of the vegetable kingdom, in- 

 stead of vegetable exhibits such as are 

 staged by the average private gardener. 



Dates of this society's shows for 

 1914 are: Rose show, June 9; dahlia 

 show, October 6; chrysanthemum show, 

 October 29 and 30. Exhibits for the 

 next meeting, Wednesday, May 13, are 

 twelve Darwin tulips, mixed; a vase 

 of a flowering shrub and three heads of 

 lettuce. Harry Jones, Cor. Sec'y. 



Dixon, HI. — Charles O. Engel has pur- 

 chased an interest in the Swartley 

 greenhouses, at Sterling, and now re- 

 ceives stock from this concern for his 

 store, the Rosery.

GREENHOUSE SHADINQ 



No. 6 HiKh 8tr««t. MORRItTOWN. N. J. 



AFTER twenty-flye years' experience in Green- 

 bouoe work, with Loid A Burnham Company, 

 in tbe glaeing and painting department, I am 

 convinced that what Is most needed In this line IB a 

 srood shading, and I am pleased to advise you that I 

 have tbe real thing, which I am sure you will find to 

 be Just what yon are looking for. 



This shading is beneficial to the painted wood, as 

 It does not contain any gasoline or naphtha which 

 wonld destroy the paint- In addition, it Is beneficial 

 to the glaaa also, for you will find that when the 

 shading is removed tbe glass retains its former 

 brilliancy. 



As to Its application, this Is a very easy matter. It 

 can be either sprayed on or put on with a soft brush. 

 For real good work, however, I would recommend 

 the use of a soft brush. 



Another advantage of this shading Is that wben It 

 Is no longer needed, it can be removed without any 

 dlfflcQlty. leaving the glaaa, as before stated, with ita 

 original brilliancy. 



I am making thla up in gallon cans, in three 

 shades— light green, light blue and pure white. 

 When ordering, kindly mention the color desired. 



I trust that yon will kindly favor me with a trial 

 order to prove ita worth, after which I have no doubt 

 whatever but that yon will continue Ita use.
